C25K app recommendations please

I use C25K Free (by Zen Labs) from the Apple app store on my iPhone. It allows me to listen to my own music, it just "dings" and says "start running"/"start walking" at the appropriate intervals. It is so nice not to have to watch a clock!

I also use C25K Free (by Zen Labs) on my iPod Touch. I really like the option to set either dings, or voice to tell me when to walk/run. And you can listen to your own music.

I have an android and use the app RunDouble. I am able to listen to my music with the app running. It just stops my music to tell me when it's time to run/walk, then goes back to my music.

I also use the C25K free by Zen Labs app.

I just downloaded it to my phone (android). The only verbal instructions it says is "Run" "Walk" or whatever.
The colors on the screen change.

Orange for warmup
Red for run
Green for walk
Blue for cooldown

There are 3 bubbles (that's how it appears with the app I have, anyways).
The big bubble in the middle tells you how much time you have to run or walk (like a countdown)
The small bubble on the left tells you how much time you have left, and the small bubble on the right tells you how much time you have used.

And then if you are running for 1 min, the middle bubble is just that 1 min. Once it gets to 0, it switches to the walking countdown.

So I usually run on the treadmill, set my phone up in front of me, and then plug in my earphones and jam to music. I just glance down to get an idea of the time, and then get ready to change my speed. I never actually hear it say anything, but I know other people at the gym do. hahaha

I am using that one too, and I really love it. It is great that I can listen to podcasts/music and still have the voice telling me to run/walk.

I used 5K runner on the iphone. It was like 2.99.

Yep. I use the Zen labs app too, but I use the c210k one. The first 8 weeks are the exact same as the c25k app, but then it has weeks after that to work to a 10k. That's why I use that one. I don't want to have to switch when I get to the 5k point; I'd like to just keep going on one app.

I used the free NHS podcasts. Althrough from the UK they are available to download from anywhere in the world. I loved the coaching and the advice on foot placement and breathing. The encouragement seem to be at the exact time I needed it. The music is quite cheesy but I liked it by the end as it was familiar. I started using MapMyWalk part way through to keep track of my distances whilst the podcast was playing but switched to Runkeeper about two weeks before the end. I've stuck with Runkeeper and now listen to my own music on a playlist. I'm still running and regularly getting PBs. I try to run 5K three times a week.

I use Run Double, and so far I really like it. I can listen to Pandora (I have never gotten around to putting my own music on my phone) while i run and the voice just tells me when to run/walk. I also like that it reads my stats to me so I can see my progress from week to week and day to day. That really helps keep me pushing myself to do better.

Zombies! Run C25K is the best. but then again anything that gets you moving because zombies are chasing you is awsome.

its pricy as are the Zombies! Run seasons 1 and 2 but they are the greatest thing since sliced bread. helps keep my family motivated to go out for a walk/run because the story is so interesting.

Another vote for Zombies c25k. I finished it and loved every session. It plays your music but has a storyline too so I looked forward to learning more of the story with each run.
